Many employment lawsuits stem from preventable situations — harassment that was not addressed, retaliation by a manager who did not understand the law, or discrimination that stemmed from unconscious bias. Effective training on anti-harassment policies, performance management, accommodation obligations, and termination practices is one of the best investments an employer can make. We provide legal training for managers and HR professionals.
Anti-Harassment Training
Anti-harassment training helps managers and employees recognize and respond to harassment, understand the complaint process, and appreciate the consequences of harassment. Interactive training that includes real-world scenarios is more effective than passive video-based programs. We develop and deliver customized training for Hepworth Legal clients.
Manager Training on Employment Law
First-line managers make most of the employment decisions — hiring, performance management, discipline, and termination — that generate employment lawsuits. Training managers on the basics of employment law, including discrimination law, retaliation prohibitions, and accommodation obligations, is among the highest-impact risk management investments an employer can make.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does anti-harassment training actually reduce lawsuits?
Yes, when done effectively. Courts and juries look favorably on employers who have implemented robust training programs, and some defenses to harassment claims require showing that the employer took reasonable steps to prevent harassment. The key is quality training that is regularly updated and delivered interactively.
